Eric J. Weinberg, Editor
The Physical Review D
Dear Dr. Weinberg:
How are you?
In July 2-5, I participated to the XIII International Meeting Physical Interpretations of Relativity Theory, in Moscow . The main purpose is to present my report,
“The Necessity of Unifying Gravitation and Electromagnetism and the Mass-Charge Repulsive Effects in Gravity”.
This paper has been well received. In addition, I have presented two other papers.
I also presented the paper, “Einstein versus the Physical Review on Gravitational Waves and the Principle of Causality”. In this paper, I criticized your editorial for the following reasons:
1) Your editorial accepted wave solutions with unbounded amplitude, and Einstein’s requirement on weak gravity was implicitly rejected in disagreement with the principle of causality.
2) Your editorial and others did not understand Einstein’s equivalence principle and incorrectly regarded it as essentially the same as Pauli’s version.
3) Your editorial accepted the invalid interim “covariance principle”.
4) Currently, misinterpretations of Einstein’s equivalence principle and the acceptance of the invalid “covariance principle”, in effect, have developed into efforts conspired to give deceptive claims such as the so-called covariant xxxxula of de Sitter Precession by Will.
Nevertheless, the Physical Review is not alone on such problems. For example well-known theorists such as Penrose and Nobel Laureate, ‘t Hooft also did not understand the principle of causality adequately. The file of this paper is attached herewith for your perusal.
The purpose of inxxxxing you this matter is to guard against any misunderstanding such as that the views of the Physical Review have been changed. Moreover, if you feel that there is a need to present your view in a more accurate manner, or to defend your view, I would recommend that your opinion be published along with my article. This would give a chance for the readers to appreciate the view of the Physical Review better.
Thank you for your kind attention. I am looking forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely yours,
C. Y. Lo
